This easy arrangement from one of the most popular symphonies of all time remains remarkably faithful to the spirit of the original. Starting with a rousing cut-time intro, it moves through a beautiful chorale section to the famous lyric theme, which leads to its ultimate conclusion in a return of the opening music. A great introduction to the works of Brahms. (2:00) Correlated with Accent on Achievement, Book 2, page 28.
